KUBECTL_EXTERNAL_DIFF environment variable can be used to select your own diff tool. 11 Returns the following exit codes: 2 on general errors, 1 when a diff is found, and 0 when no diff is found 12 Kubernetes Secrets are ignored from this diff. 13 14 ``` 15 argocd app diff APPNAME [flags] 16 ``` 17 18 ### Options 19 20 ``` 21 -N, --app-namespace string Only render the difference in namespace 22 --diff-exit-code int Return specified exit code when there is a diff. Typical error code is 20 but use another exit code if you want to differentiate from the generic exit code (20) returned by all CLI commands. (default 1) 23 --exit-code Return non-zero exit code when there is a diff. May also return non-zero exit code if there is an error. (default true) 24 --hard-refresh Refresh application data as well as target manifests cache 25 -h, --help help for diff 26 --ignore-normalizer-jq-execution-timeout duration Set ignore normalizer JQ execution timeout (default 1s) 27 --local string Compare live app to a local manifests 28 --local-include stringArray Used with --server-side-generate, specify patterns of filenames to send. Matching is based on filename and not path. (default [*.yaml,*.yml,*.json]) 29 --local-repo-root string Path to the repository root. Used together with --local allows setting the repository root (default "/") 30 --refresh Refresh application data when retrieving 31 --revision string Compare live app to a particular revision 32 --revisions stringArray Show manifests at specific revisions for source position in source-positions 33 --server-side-diff Use server-side diff to calculate the diff. This will default to true if the ServerSideDiff annotation is set on the application. 34 --server-side-generate Used with --local, this will send your manifests to the server for diffing 35 --source-names stringArray List of source names. Default is an empty array. 36 --source-positions int64Slice List of source positions. Default is empty array. Counting start at 1. (default []) 37 ``` 38 39 ### Options inherited from parent commands 40 41 ``` 42 --argocd-context string The name of the Argo-CD server context to use 43 --auth-token string Authentication token; set this or the ARGOCD_AUTH_TOKEN environment variable 44 --client-crt string Client certificate file 45 --client-crt-key string Client certificate key file 46 --config string Path to Argo CD config (default "/home/user/.config/argocd/config") 47 --controller-name string Name of the Argo CD Application controller; set this or the ARGOCD_APPLICATION_CONTROLLER_NAME environment variable when the controller's name label differs from the default, for example when installing via the Helm chart (default "argocd-application-controller") 48 --core If set to true then CLI talks directly to Kubernetes instead of talking to Argo CD API server 49 --grpc-web Enables gRPC-web protocol. Useful if Argo CD server is behind proxy which does not support HTTP2. 50 --grpc-web-root-path string Enables gRPC-web protocol. Useful if Argo CD server is behind proxy which does not support HTTP2. Set web root. 51 -H, --header strings Sets additional header to all requests made by Argo CD CLI. (Can be repeated multiple times to add multiple headers, also supports comma separated headers) 52 --http-retry-max int Maximum number of retries to establish http connection to Argo CD server 53 --insecure Skip server certificate and domain verification 54 --kube-context string Directs the command to the given kube-context 55 --logformat string Set the logging format. One of: json|text (default "json") 56 --loglevel string Set the logging level. One of: debug|info|warn|error (default "info") 57 --plaintext Disable TLS 58 --port-forward Connect to a random argocd-server port using port forwarding 59 --port-forward-namespace string Namespace name which should be used for port forwarding 60 --prompts-enabled Force optional interactive prompts to be enabled or disabled, overriding local configuration. If not specified, the local configuration value will be used, which is false by default. 61 --redis-compress string Enable this if the application controller is configured with redis compression enabled. (possible values: gzip, none) (default "gzip") 62 --redis-haproxy-name string Name of the Redis HA Proxy; set this or the ARGOCD_REDIS_HAPROXY_NAME environment variable when the HA Proxy's name label differs from the default, for example when installing via the Helm chart (default "argocd-redis-ha-haproxy") 63 --redis-name string Name of the Redis deployment; set this or the ARGOCD_REDIS_NAME environment variable when the Redis's name label differs from the default, for example when installing via the Helm chart (default "argocd-redis") 64 --repo-server-name string Name of the Argo CD Repo server; set this or the ARGOCD_REPO_SERVER_NAME environment variable when the server's name label differs from the default, for example when installing via the Helm chart (default "argocd-repo-server") 65 --server string Argo CD server address 66 --server-crt string Server certificate file 67 --server-name string Name of the Argo CD API server; set this or the ARGOCD_SERVER_NAME environment variable when the server's name label differs from the default, for example when installing via the Helm chart (default "argocd-server") 68 ``` 69 70 ### SEE ALSO 71 72 * [argocd app](argocd_app.md) - Manage applications 73
